Outside the boat, the commotion caused by the scramble for the grilled fish gradually subsided. The fifteen "helper fish" seemed to have had a full meal, dived back into the water, and continued to silently pull the "Wave Breaker" forward.
The few small boats that had been scared away before were now following from a distance, seemingly still hesitating whether to get closer.
Lu Ye stood by the boat, feeling the cold sea breeze at night, but his heart was not overly moved.
This little scene couldn't scare him.
At this moment, a cold system prompt sounded in his mind.
[Ding! Detected that player "Lu Ye" has successfully received the 100th "Alien Express"! ]
Milestone reached! Special rewards being distributed...
Lu Ye raised his eyebrows.
Wow, one hundred orders already? Even as a courier, I still have a hard life even if I cross over into different industries!
He complained in his heart, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
This was one of his biggest reliances for survival in the early days, and now it has finally reached the hundredth time.
[Rewards distributed successfully! Your talent "Lucky One" has been enhanced!]
[New Talent: Lucky Plus - You are like a beloved darling of the world. Every time your vehicle travels 8 nautical miles, you will automatically receive a "Divine Express" package of random quality.]
[Reward successfully distributed! You gain a one-time skill: Future Vision (Fragment)]
[Future Vision (Fragments): Active skill, 72-hour cooldown. Upon activation, you can glimpse key scenes or fragments that may occur within the next 15 minutes. Note: The future is not absolute, and your actions may cause your observations to deviate.]
Lu Ye's breathing stagnated slightly, and a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes.
One package every eight nautical miles?
This is like a perpetual motion machine! While Lucky was useful before, its activation was completely random. Now it's a stable output, which is a miracle in a sea survival game where resources are extremely scarce!
And this "Future Vision"... 15 minutes of foresight? He quickly assessed the value of this new skill. Although it only lasted 15 minutes, with a three-day cooldown, it could be a life-saving trump card if used in a critical moment!
Even... it's a trump card for counterattack!
He glanced at the "Speed" activity on the system interface that was counting down.
There are more than four hours left... Well, this "Future Vision" must not be used lightly until one hour before the last easter egg is refreshed!
Good steel should be used on the blade!
The plan was set, and Lu Ye was just about to turn back to the cabin to discuss the next course with Shen Shu and the others.
“BOOM——!!!”
Without warning, a mountain-sized wave suddenly crashed down from the side and rear! The wave blocked out the sky and sun, smashing into the Breaker with immense force!
"Be careful!!" Lu Ye's pupils suddenly shrank and he shouted subconsciously, while holding on tightly to the railing next to him!
The hull was shaking violently, as if it would be overturned by the terrifying waves in the next second!
However, just when the wave was about to hit, the "Wavebreaker" suddenly made an incredible turn to the side and front, narrowly avoiding the core impact of the wave!
"Splash--" A huge amount of sea water swept over the sides of the ship, and the deck was instantly soaked, but the ship itself remained stable!
Lu Ye was still in shock and immediately looked at the screen in the cockpit.
The speed of the ship not only did not slow down, but suddenly accelerated, rushing in one direction like mad!
It's those fish! Lu Ye reacted instantly.
It’s the fifteen power fish under the boat that are exerting force!
But their current performance doesn't seem like simple acceleration, it's more like...
Run for your life!
An instinctive reaction of extreme fear and wanting to stay away from a certain existence!
Is there something behind this?! And something that could scare these system fish to death?!
Lu Ye's heart was filled with alarm.
Could it be... a natural enemy? !
He suddenly thought of the red-named black fish that almost took his life, and the unknown horrors lurking in this strange sea.
I can’t wait any longer! Lu Ye’s eyes sharpened and he stopped hesitating.
In this damn place, danger could come at any time!
I must know what the hell is behind this immediately!
He concentrated his mind and recited silently in his heart.
"System! Use 'Future Vision (Fragment)'!"
Buzz——
A slight feeling of dizziness came over me, and the scene in front of me instantly became blurred and distorted.
Then, several intermittent images of light and shadow flooded into his mind:
Scene 1: On the dark and viscous sea surface, an indescribably huge shadow slowly emerged. It seemed to have no fixed shape, more like a wriggling mass of chaotic flesh covered with suction cups and tentacles.
Picture 2: The lump of meat suddenly extended a thick tentacle, rolled up a small, broken boat that was fleeing, and stuffed the boat and the players on it into a huge cavity that was constantly opening and closing in the center of the shadow, just like eating noodles!
The chewing sounds and screams were indistinct, but the pure feeling of devouring made one's scalp tingle!
Screen 3: Zooming out, the giant shadowy monster slowly moves across the ocean. Its goal seems clear—it specifically pursues ships that smell of food or have recently discarded food scraps! It's like a giant, hungry ocean scavenger!
Screen Four: The final scene freezes at the stern of the Wavebreaker! That massive shadow is slowly moving towards him! The target is clear!
The future vision suddenly stopped.
Cold sweat instantly broke out on Lu Ye's forehead, and his back felt cold!
Damn! They really are coming for him!
He understood instantly.
Just now, I threw so many grilled fish pieces to feed the fish. The tempting aroma was like a beacon in the dark night in this silent and dangerous sea, clearly pointing the monster in the direction!
On the entire ship, no one can compare to him in terms of food reserves and newly produced 'bait'!
He glanced at the time and saw that there were still four hours left until the end of the third round of Easter eggs!
Although that monster doesn't seem to be fast, it is definitely an endurance player. Being targeted by it is like a leech!
"Chen Hebei!" Lu Ye turned around suddenly and shouted at Shen Hebei who was checking the damage to the hull.
"Raise all the power grids on the ship! Turn the power up to maximum! Quickly!"
Although Shen Hebei didn't understand why, he immediately took action when he saw Lu Ye's serious expression.
A buzzing sound of electricity was heard, and blue-purple arcs of electricity intertwined around the "Wavebreaker", forming a temporary "electric barrier".
At the same time, the vortex on the sea surface rotated more violently and the suction force suddenly increased!
In the regional channel, the players who were already on the verge of collapse due to lack of fuel and monsters were now completely furious!
"Ahhh! The whirlpool is getting bigger! My boat is getting sucked in! Help!"
"I can't run anymore! I'm out of gas! I don't want to die!"
"What...what is that?! There's a huge shadow in the sea!!"
“Run! Run!!”
